Osteopontin in Bone Metabolism and Bone Diseases [PDF]
Osteopontin (OPN), a secreted phosphoprotein, is a member of the small integrin-binding ligand N-linked glycoprotein (SIBLING) family of cell matrix proteins and participates in many biological activities. Studies have shown that OPN plays a role in bone metabolism and homeostasis.

Adynamic bone disease--bone and beyond [PDF]
Disturbances of bone and mineral metabolism are a hallmark of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) is the traditional term for bone lesions in conjunction with CKD and is now considered a part of the ‘chronic kidney disease—mineral and bone disorder’ (CKD-MBD) [1].

Autoinflammatory Bone Diseases. [PDF]
Autoinflammatory bone diseases (AIBDs) constitute a recently identified subset of autoinflammatory diseases. These conditions are characterized by an exaggerated inflammatory response in the bones without any apparent etiology. Inflammatory bone lesions associated with AIBDs exhibit chronic inflammation, are typically culture-negative, and do not ...

Parkinson’s disease and the bones
PRINCIPLES: Bone and joint problems in Parkinson’s disease (PD) are manifold: decreased mobility, abnormal posture, as well as the risk of falling may cause both acute and chronic damage to the musculoskeletal system. In patients with Parkinson’s disease, postural instability and falls are frequently observed.

Adjusting bone mass for differences in projected bone area and other confounding variables: an allometric perspective. [PDF]
The traditional method of assessing bone mineral density (BMD; given by bone mineral content [BMC] divided by projected bone area [Ap], BMD = BMC/Ap) has come under strong criticism by various authors. Their criticism being that the projected bone "area"

This chapter focuses on Paget's disease of bone. The pathological hallmark of the Paget's bone disease is excessive and disorganized activity of bone that involves both matrix and mineral. There is no idea of its cause and little knowledge of its natural history; however, the biochemical changes produced by the overactive bone justify its inclusion as ...
